The Apache Flink community is very happy to announce the release of Apache Flink Stateful Functions 2.2.0.
Stateful Functions is an API that simplifies the building of distributed stateful applications with a runtime built for serverless architectures. It's based on functions with persistent state that can interact dynamically with strong consistency guarantees. Please check out the release blog post for an overview of the release: https://flink.apache.org/news/2020/09/28/release-statefun-2.2.0.html The release is available for download at: https://flink.apache.org/downloads.html Maven artifacts for Stateful Functions can be found at: https://search.maven.org/search?q=g:org.apache.flink%20statefun Python SDK for Stateful Functions published to the PyPI index can be found at: https://pypi.org/project/apache-flink-statefun/ Official Docker image for building Stateful Functions applications is currently being published to Docker Hub.
